MORE BURGLARS.

A Duet of Thieves do Yankton, bul
not with Successful Results
During last night burglars entered
three OF the hotels in this city, the Mer-
chants, the Pacific and the Germania
and although they did not make very
rich haals at any of the places they
posted themselves on the location oi
things q that should they come agair
they will be more successful. The
thieves instituted operations abou,
midnight, beginning at the Pacific house
where they entered a room through ar
unlocked door occupied by f. Frederick
a butcher. They made no noise and
taking Mr.. Frederick's clothes rifed
them of Sl.2l, all the change in the
pockets. The clothes we're found on
the sidewalk near the hotel this morning,
Next they went to the Germania house
where George Oberant, o harness maker,
sleeps in o room near the verandah. Mr.
Oberant lost an old fashioned silver
watch and some money and just escaped
losing n of his legs, the RICH. one,
which is made of wood and which Mr..
o. does not take to bed with him. The
leg was in it's proper place in the trousers
and the burglars had no use for it and
they left it. The coat and the vest were
found in the hall with other wearing
apparel. The thieves then visited several
other rooms, in one Of which they S.
cured another watch belonging to a mar
whose name is not known. The hostler,
Weingrober, lost IS cents. P. o. Conway.
50 sents and y handkerchief, and one
other bosrder lost 20 cents. This vista
tion was made while the night clerk was
on duty and awake, and as he was over
the house several times the providers
must have been very still. After the

case he needed assistance. The burg
lars pushed the door open aud seeing
Mr.. Stroud awake asked him what time
he wanted to be called in the morning,
He made some reply and the visitors
left, but Mr.. Stroud's suspicious were
aroused, as he knew the hotel manage
ment was aware OF his illness. He did
rot go to sleep again and in the course
of an hour he heard some u trying his
door. Suddenly the door swnng hall
open and in the doorway stood q short,
thick set man, wearing dark clothes, and
@ moustache of q few days' growth. In
the hall stood o taller fellow, who was
careful! not to be seen. Mr.. Stroud
jumped from his bed and chased the
burglars through o hall down stairs to
the Kitchen. where they escaped through
an open window. There were several

had considerable money in their clothes,
